Abstract
In this letter we develop a solution for decentralized localization of transceiving nodes in wireless networks. By exploiting a common transmission schedule, this is achieved without any additional communication and dispels the need for synchronized nodes. We derive the Cramer-Rao bounds for the solution and formulate two practical estimators for localization. Finally, the solution and estimators are tested in numerical experiments.
